I just got a 2008 xb12scg. The first thing to go is the exhaust. I had a Hawk pipe on my last Buell and was happy with it, but money isn't as tight these days and the drummer is looking good. I really like the tip on the drummer and have heard that the exhaust note is about as deep as they come. Plus there is a lot of dyno info out there showing a good torque curve. The Hawk is inexpensive and nearly as good but there aren't any good dyno charts out there. I would be particularly interested if anyone had heard the two in person to compare. I want a pipe based on the stock pipe to retain the stock look and chin fairing.

One of these.
Makes this on a stock motor xb9.
I don't hide my work by grinding the welds smooth. It is what it is.
If you want some thump, this will do it.

Tune should be forthcoming from EBR, unless you want it right now, then talk to Mike Cobb (xoptiinside) about tunes he has available.
I have chin fairing brackets as well, so that's covered.

you can see the baffles in the pics.
yes EBR now have a D Adams Keda muffler pre-programed Race ECM.
so it is now plug n play.
need to save my pennies for a full system.
They have 4 exhaust pipes of mine there right now. 3 are there for tuning, one is an RT-XB-1 and I know it will be tested on an xb12, I just don't know exactly when.
I had a Drummer SS on my 08 XB12S with a open airbox and a EBR ecm. No dyno numbers, but would pull 5th gear from 1500 rpm with no trouble ( was being stared at by two police officers while going through a small town ).
Sounded great with no complants from the nieghbours.
Everthing I have heard about D Adams stuff has been good, well made and preforms good.
Hard to go wrong either way
